Winter wanderlust: some scent suggestions
At Bloom Parfums, we firmly believe you should wear whatever kind of perfume you want, whenever you want to wear it. But we also like to think seasonally! And, even though you might be staying close to home in the colder weather, fragrance can enhance your indoor activities just as much as your more far-flung summer travels.
Here are a few recommendations for your winter fragrance wardrobe, and where to wear them.
Isabelle Larignon created an olfactory homage to snowflakes with Le Flocon de Johann K.,
so this scent is a natural choice for a stroll in a winter wonderland. To Larignon’s imaginative nose, snow is brisk yet delicate, reflecting light while it softens the edges of everything it covers. Spritz on Le Flocon de Johann K. just before you head out into a frosty morning or freshly fallen show, and see how it feels to you!
Then, when you’re ready to head inside and get cozy, metaphorically speaking, consider slipping into Isabelle Larignon’s Milky Dragon.
In creating this fragrance, Larignon was inspired by milky oolong, a tea cultivar with a naturally creamy aspect. Milky Dragon’s non-sweet gourmand composition has a heart of black tea with a swirl of milkiness, a fruity topnote, and a hint of hazelnut in the drydown. It’s delectable, comfortable, and beautifully unusual.
Even if you aren’t headed to a faraway destination this summer, perfume can be its own memorable journey. Artimique’s Philtre d’Ambre,
for example, plays on the traditional perfumery concept of amber, a mix of rich spices and smoky-sweet tree resins. This fragrance evokes a stroll through the shadowy streets of Venice, with several intriguing twists and turns, from an ozonic whiff of the city’s lagoon waters to a warm, aromatic embrace of cloves and incense.
Lastly, ERIS Parfums Mxxx. is an even bolder take on ERIS’s ahead-of-the-curve, gender-fluid fragrance Mx.: it doubles down on the heated sensuality of Mx.’s animalic and edible notes.
The result is the rule-breaking cocoa-and-sandalwood scent you never knew you needed. It might even become your new “going out” fragrance for winter nights, a perfect pairing with a leather jacket.
We hope you’ll find that one or more of these scents is a perfect fit for your cold-weather adventures, wherever they take you.
